OSD Zero-K

We have added a virtual race for all non-runners or walkers that want to help CLCC from their couch. OSD ZERO-K participants still receive the OSD5K shirt and OSD festival pass. Those that do join us race day can line-up with our walkers and finish their race at the starting line.

Early packet pick-up will be offered on, June 16th & 17th, 2020, between 3-7 p.m. at Rockton Commons, 330 East Main Street in Rockton.  Participants are encouraged to use this opportunity to pick-up your race swag, so you have your festival pass for the opening of OSD.
